Travel
A: With the development of the society, more and more people prefer to travel on the vacation.Do you know why people like travel?
B: Some people go traveling for the fresh air.They get a chance toforget their busy life styles and just relax themselves when they stay away from central cities.When they go to some other places, they can experience different environment and culture.A: Yeah, that’s a good chance to practice the ability of living alone and you can make more friends.You can also exercise your body if you like hiking in the mountains;it’s good for health.B: So, I’ve a question for u, which do you prefer, individual travel or package tour? A: I always like independent travel.I love the freedom and flexibility when I travel by myself.I can stay longer in a place if I enjoy the beautiful scenery there.Also, I will have more chances to communicate with local residents or other tourists from all over the world--which will be an exciting and unforgettable experience.The difficulties I face during my travels are part of my life experiences.How about you?
B: To be honest, I prefer package tour.It’s just easier, you know? The travel agency makes enough preparations for you if you choose a qualified company.And it can ensure your trip goes smoothly, so you don’t need to worry about time, route and accommodation.Besides, it is safer and less time-consuming.A: Yes, but you can’t get more freedom, because you can’t do whatever you want when you are traveling.And the tour guides always ask you to buy a lot of things that you needn’t.B: Well, that’s true.I do hate it when the tour guide does that.But, you know, nothing’s perfect.Preparing for a trip is a lot of work.I think I’ll leave it to the travel agency.A Well, you do have a point I guess.By the way, I heard you and Lucy are going to Hong Kong.I guess that’s also a package tour?
B Not this time!We’re going all by ourselves!We are going shopping!I guess that’s something package tour cannot provide.A I couldn’t agree more.Well, have a nice time there!
B Thanks!
Mother Earth
A What are u listening there?
B It’s Miley Cyrus’s Wake up America.It’s a song about protecting the environment around us.A Really? That’s inspiring.B It sure is.A line in this song really hits me.It goes ”Everything you do matters in some way”.A I couldn’t agree more.Environmental protection has become more and more
important in both scientific field and in our daily lives.It's necessary for us to protect the environment step by step.B You know, I read an article few days ago.It says that the biggest threat to our environment today is the way we see it.How we see our environment shapes our whole world.A But we may only a little bit in reality.To be honest, I feel powerless for individual.B That’s exactly what I’m talking about.Cheer up!Don’t be so negative!We can join in some kind of organization that’s about the Green House effect.It’s mainly about protecting the earth by saving endangered animals.A Oh, I see your point, we can also do a lot in daily life.For example, turning the lights off before you leave the room is a good way to reduce carbon dioxide.B Well, speaking of carbon dioxide, have you seen the movie An Inconvenient Truth?
A Yeah!Gole shows that the temperature’s increasing is earlier than carbon dioxide.That’s an interesting opinion.B It sure is.But I don’t really buy it.There’s that other movie is even against the view that global warming is caused by carbon dioxide.Guess who’s gonna win?
A Well no matter who wins, our Mother Earth will always be the loser.B You’re absolutely right!Anyway, the point is to protect the earth, not to argue.Continuing education
A: Hi, where are you going?
B: I’m heading for the book store.Would you like to join me?
A: Sure!Do you have a book in mind?
B: Well, not particularly.I’ve decided to take the GRE.So…
A: Wow, good for u!That’s ambitious!
B: Thanks.Hope I’m lucky enough.What about u?
A: Well, I’m going to take a job first, gain some experience.Maybe some day I’ll attend night schools to enhance my professional skills.B: You mean to study while you’re working? How does that work exactly?
A: Simple enough actually.You see, although you are able to get general education from school, when it comes to working, it usually demands specialist knowledge in a certain field, which most people found themselves rather ignorant.And that’s what continuing education is for.B: Oh, I see.So continuing education allows people who aren’t familiar with professional skills to be more attached to their working environment since the knowledge school provides is rather large and incompact.Besides, it gives adults a chance to relax themselves from their stressful jobs.A: Indeed.Also, people with stable jobs and lives may feel a lack of interest in their lives.So, they turn to some courses such as music and arts and literature, which may be their childhood dream.Education of this type can relax their nerves;make them
more graceful and their lives more colorful.B: How wonderful!You know what they say, it’s never too late to learn.I guess that’s what continuing education is for—to give people who are over the age of studying at school a second chance to learn something they actually care about.A Sounds attempting!But I always feel kind of lost.Just hope by the time I start working I would know what I really want to learn.B Oh, believe me.You will eventually.

Travel journal JOURNEY DOWN THE MEKONG PART 1 THE DREAM AND THE PLAN
My name is Wang Kun.Ever since middle school, my sister Wang Wei and I have dreamed about taking a great bike trip.Two years ago she bought an expensive mountain bike and then she persuaded me to buy one.Last year, she visited our cousins, Dao Wei and Yu Hang at their college in Kunming.They are Dai and grew up in western Yunnan Province near the Lancang River, the Chinese part of the river that is called the Mekong River in other countries.Wang Wei soon got them interested in cycling too.After graduating from college.we finally got the chance to take a bike trip.I asked my sister, “Where are we going?” It was my sister who first had the idea to cycle along the entire Mekong River from where it begins to where it ends.Now she is planning our schedule for the trip.I am fond of my sister but she has one serious shortcoming.She can be really stubborn.Although she didn't know the best way of getting to places, she insisted that she organize the trip properly.Now, I know that the proper way is always her way.I kept asking her, “When are we leaving and when are we coming back?” I asked her whether she had looked at a map yet.Of course, she hadn't;my sister doesn't care about details.So I told her that the source of the Mekong is in Qinghai Province.She gave me a determined look—the kind that said she would not change her mind.When I told her that our journey would begin at an altitude of more than 5,000 metres, she seemed to be excited about it.When I told her the air would be hard to breathe and it would be very cold, she said it would be an interesting experience.I know my sister well.Once she has made up her mind, nothing can change it.Finally, I had to give in.Several months before our trip,Wang Wei and I went to the library.We found a large atlas with good maps that showed details of world geography.From the atlas we could see that the Mekong River begins in a glacier on a Tibetan mountain.At first the river is small and the water is clear and cold.Then it begins to move quickly.It becomes rapids as it passes through deep valleys, travelling across western Yunnan Province.Sometimes the river becomes a waterfall and enters wide valleys.We were both surprised to learn that half of the river is in China.After it leaves China and the high altitude,the Mekong becomes wide,brown and warm.As it enters Southeast Asia, its pace slows.It makes wide bends or meanders through low valleys to the plains where rice grows.At last, the river delta enters the South China Sea.沿湄公河而下的旅行
第一部分 夢想與計劃
我的名字叫王坤。從高中起,我姐姐和我就一直夢想作一次偉大的自行車旅行。兩年前,她買了一輛價錢昂貴的山地自行車,然后她還說服我也買了一輛。去年她去看望了我們的表兄弟—在昆明讀大學的刀偉和宇航。他們是傣族人,在云南省西部靠近瀾滄江的地方長大,湄公河在中國境內的這一段叫瀾滄江,流經其他國家后就叫湄公河。很快,王薇使表兄弟也對騎車旅行產生了興趣。到大學畢業后,我們終于有了作一次騎車旅行的機會。我問姐姐:“我們要去哪里?”首先想到要沿湄公河從源頭到終點騎車旅行的是我的姐姐。現在,她正為這次旅行制訂計劃。
我很喜歡我姐姐,但是她有一個嚴重的缺點,她有時確實很固執。盡管她對到某些地方的最佳路線并不清楚,她卻堅持要把這次旅行安排的盡善盡美。現在我知道了這個盡善盡美的方式總是她的方式。我老是問她:“我們什么時候動身?什么時候回來?”我問她是否已經看過地圖。當然她并沒有看過,我的姐姐是不會考慮細節的。于是我告訴她湄公河的源頭在青海省。她給了我一個堅定的眼神—這種眼神表明她是不會改變主意的。當我告訴她我們的旅行將從5000多米的的高地出發時,她似乎顯得很興奮。當我告訴她那里空氣稀薄,呼吸會很困難,而且天氣會很冷時,她卻說這將是一次很有趣的經歷。我非常了解我的姐姐,她一旦下了決心,就什么也不能使她改變。最后,我只好讓步了。
在我們旅行前的幾個月,王薇和我去了圖書館。我們找到了一本大型的地圖冊,里面有一些世界地理的明細圖。我們從圖上可以看到,湄公河源于西藏一座山上的冰川。起初,河很小,河水清澈而冷冽,然后它開始快速流動。它穿過深谷時就變成了急流。流經云南西部。有時,這條河形成瀑布進入寬闊的峽谷。我們驚奇的發現這條河有一半是在中國境內。當流出中國,流出高地后,湄公河就變寬,變暖了。河水也變成了黃褐色。而當它進入東南亞以后,流速減慢,河水變寬慢慢地穿過低谷,到了長著稻谷的平原。最后,湄公河三角洲的各支流流入中國南海。
Reading and discussing JOURNEY DOWN THE MEKONG PART 2
A NIGHT IN THE MOUNTAINS Although it was autumn, the snow was already beginning to fall in Tibet.Our legs were so heavy and cold that they felt like blocks of ice.Have you ever seen snowmen ride bicycles? That's what we looked like!Along the way children dressed in long wool coats stopped to look at us.In the late afternoon we found it was so cold that our water bottles froze.However, the lakes shone like glass in the setting sun and looked wonderful.Wang Wei rode in front of me as usual.She is very reliable and I knew I didn't need to encourage her.To climb the mountains was hard work but as we looked around us, we were surprised by the view.We seemed to be able to see for miles.At one point we were so high that we found ourselves cycling through clouds.Then we began going down the hills.It was great fun especially as it gradually became much warmer.In the valleys colorful
butterflies flew around us and we saw many yaks and sheep eating green grass.At this point we had to change our caps, coats, gloves and trousers for T-shirts and shorts.In the early evening we always stop to make camp.We put up our tent and then we eat.After supper Wang Wei put her head down on her pillow and went to sleep but I stayed awake.At midnight the sky became clearer and the stars grew brighter.It was so quiet.There was almost no wind-only the flames of our fire for company.As I lay beneath the stars I thought about how far we had already travelled.We will reach Dali in Yunnan Province soon, where our cousins Dao Wei and Yu Hang will join us.We can hardly wait to see them!
